Product details
Overview
74HCT2G125DP,125 from Nexperia is a dual 3-state buffer/line driver with TTL-compatible inputs and CMOS outputs, operating from 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply, delivering propagation delay as low as 12 ns (VCC = 5.0 V, CL = 15 pF), and rated for -40 °C to +125 °C ambient temperature - used in bidirectional bus interfacing and level translation between legacy TTL logic and modern CMOS systems.
For engineers reviewing the 74HCT2G125DP,125 datasheet, 74HCT2G125DP,125 pinout, 74HCT2G125DP,125 application, or 74HCT2G125DP,125 equivalent, key selection criteria include output enable timing (enable/disable < 38 ns), high-impedance leakage (< ±10 μA), input clamp diode support for overvoltage-tolerant interfacing, and TSSOP8 package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
This device implements two independent non-inverting buffers, each with active-low 3-state output control (1OE, 2OE). Each channel features TTL-level input thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V min, VIL = 0.8 V max at VCC = 4.5–5.5 V) and rail-to-rail CMOS output drive capability up to ±6 mA.
Its functional behavior follows strict truth table logic: when nOE = LOW, nY mirrors nA; when nOE = HIGH, nY enters high-impedance state. Input clamp diodes allow safe interface to signals exceeding VCC when used with current-limiting resistors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - ensures compatibility with standard 5 V TTL and mixed-voltage industrial systems. |
| Propagation Delay | 12 ns (typ, VCC = 5.0 V, CL = 15 pF) - enables reliable operation in sub-25 MHz digital buses. |
| Output Drive | ±6.0 mA (VOH/VOL @ VCC = 4.5 V) - sufficient to drive 50 pF loads with < 0.33 V VOL and > 3.7 V VOH. |
| Enable/Disable Time | 35 ns / 31 ns (max, VCC = 4.5 V) - supports fast bus arbitration and dynamic line sharing. |
| Input Leakage | ±1.0 μA (max, VI = GND or VCC) - minimizes static power draw and signal integrity impact in high-impedance nodes. |
| Operating Temp | -40 °C to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive modules and industrial motor control environments. |
| ESD Rating | HBM > 2000 V, CDM > 1000 V - meets JEDEC JS-001/JS-002 Class C3 for robust handling in automated assembly. |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP8 plastic thin shrink small outline package (SOT505-2); 8 leads; body width 3 mm; lead length 0.5 mm; pin 1 index located on lower left corner below marking code 'T25'.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 7 (1OE, 2OE) | Active-low output enable | Drives respective output into high-Z when HIGH; enables buffer pass-through when LOW. |
| 2, 5 (1A, 2A) | Data input | TTL-compatible input accepting 0.8 V/2.0 V thresholds; includes internal clamp diodes. |
| 3, 6 (2Y, 1Y) | Data output | CMOS push-pull output capable of sourcing/sinking ±6 mA with rail-aligned VOH/VOL. |
| 4 | GND | Reference ground node for all I/O and supply return paths. |
| 8 | VCC | Main supply rail (4.5–5.5 V); powers both buffers and internal logic. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TTL-compatible inputs | VIH ≥ 2.0 V, VIL ≤ 0.8 V at 5 V supply - enables direct connection to legacy 74LS/74ALS families without level shifters. |
| Clamp diode protection | Integrated input diodes to VCC/GND - allows safe interface to signals up to VCC + 0.5 V using external current-limiting resistors. |
| Low dynamic power | CPD = 11 pF (enabled), 1 pF (disabled) - reduces switching power by >90% during bus idle states. |
| High noise immunity | Typical noise margin > 0.8 V (VCC = 5 V) - maintains logic integrity in electrically noisy industrial enclosures. |
| Latch-up immunity | Exceeds 100 mA per JESD78 Class II Level B - prevents destructive latch-up during transient overvoltage events. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual 3-state buffer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74LVC2G125DPWR | Lower VCC range (1.65–5.5 V); CMOS inputs only; 3.3 V optimized; 3.5 ns faster propagation at 3.3 V. | Better suited for mixed-voltage 3.3 V/5 V systems but lacks TTL input compatibility. | Select when interfacing with 3.3 V FPGAs or microcontrollers and no legacy TTL devices are present. |
| 74AHC2G125DP,125 | Wider VCC range (2.0–5.5 V); higher speed (8 ns typ @ 5 V); CMOS inputs only; slightly higher ICC. | Superior timing performance but requires level-shifting for TTL sources. | Choose for maximum speed in pure CMOS environments where input voltage compatibility is not constrained. |

FAQ
What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the 74HCT2G125DP,125?
The device does not operate as a clocked element but as a combinatorial buffer. Its usable data rate is determined by propagation delay and load: with 12 ns typical tPD (VCC = 5.0 V, CL = 15 pF), it supports reliable data transfer up to ~25 MHz in point-to-point configurations. For bus applications, timing margins must account for enable/disable latency and trace impedance.
Can the 74HCT2G125DP,125 drive a 50 pF capacitive load at full speed?
Yes - the datasheet specifies dynamic characteristics (tpd, ten, tdis) with CL = 50 pF. At VCC = 4.5 V, tPD is 15 ns (max), ten is 35 ns (max), and tdis is 31 ns (max), confirming full-speed operation into 50 pF loads. Output drive strength (±6 mA) ensures adequate slew rate under this condition.
Is the 74HCT2G125DP,125 pin-compatible with the 74HC2G125DP,125?
Yes - both share identical TSSOP8 (SOT505-2) pinout and footprint. However, the 74HC variant uses CMOS input thresholds (VIH = 3.15 V min at VCC = 4.5 V), whereas the 74HCT variant uses TTL thresholds (VIH = 2.0 V min), making them electrically incompatible without redesign of upstream drivers.
Does the 74HCT2G125DP,125 require external pull-up or pull-down resistors on OE pins?
No - OE pins are active-low CMOS inputs with ±1.0 μA leakage and defined VIH/VIL thresholds. When driven directly by MCU GPIOs or logic gates, no external biasing is needed. However, if left floating, they default to HIGH (outputs disabled); intentional use requires explicit LOW assertion via controller or switch.
